.Profile.
|
I was born in Sydney, Australia
in 1968, and grew up on a beach north of Sydney.
|
...
| I
studied a Bachelor of Agricultural Science at Sydney University before
doing a quick lap of the world in the early nineties. |
.
...
| I
returned to Australia and moved to Brisbane to study a Masters of Agricultural
Studies. My mum passed away in 1994 and I changed my focus from research
to community development and adult learning. |
...
| I've
been working for the Queensland government since the mid 90's, helping
client groups identify issues that affect their community and helping them
to construct a process to overcome these issues and create ownership of
the solutions. I've worked with rural communities, city suits, and
now indigenous brothers and sisters. The same processes of ownership
and empowerment applies. |
...
..
| I've
been married and divorced and am now studying a Doctorate, along with working
full time, and developing my skills as an artist. You can find out
more about me at http://bennfleming.com/. |
.
| I'm
planning to stop work with the government in 3-5 years time, to get more
involved in international projects and spend more time painting, writing
and enjoying the moments of each day. |
